I know LaVar is our best player but why doesn't anyone get on his case when he hits people 5 yards out of bounds? He's supposed to lead by example, not by words. Like BossHog said about Dockery, Jimoh is only a rookie. There will be some mistakes made.

I've gotten on Lavar as well....he's made some seriously bone-headed plays this year, and I've said so.

Guess I should cut the kid some slack and chew on the coaches for not having the depth in the secondary to keep a unproven rookie, whose lost, on the bench? I've done that too...just not in the particular area.

Yo... Jakemeister - we have - there were several "boo" notes on here about Arrington, Trotter and all with their asanine personal fouls. The only ones I would question would be Regan Upshaw getting raped on that roughing the QB, and McCants with the unsportsmanlike conduct. Neither was a justifiable call and I would tell that to any official eyeball to eyeball with tape replays to show them the steps the QB took after the throw or McCants when he tossed the ball. Whatta joke.

The thing is though - this would be the third blown coverage for Jimoh for a TD in three tries in coverage. That is a low 0.00% in passes defended my friend... and we can't afford that.

The one thing about Jimoh is he doesn't contribute like Lavar does. We can let things slide with Lavar if he actually does something great the next play. I haven't seen Jimoh involved in a play that went our way yet.

Whenever I start to get blue, I just breathe!

My favortie line from the Simpsons:

Flanders: "Looks like someone is having a pre-rapture party!"

Homer: "No Flanders, it's a meeting of gay witches for abortion , you wouldn't be interested!"

Let me add one thing to this about Jimoh. If the guy is going to get beat anyway...why not line him up right at the line to bump his guy and try to throw the timing off the receivers route. None of our DB's are pressing at the line due to GE not wanting to get burned on the deep out. But its not working for Jimoh. He is getting burned when he is giving a cushion. Make a freakin adjustment or bench the guy for Franz or even Terrell.

The guy is getting burnt because he's just not ready enough to play... and of course, since we like to play musical TEs... we had to cut a guy like Alex Molden who I'm sure would have had to have performed better than Jimoh has to date.

Hopefully Bauman will be okay to rejoin the lineup this week. he was questionable last week, so he had to be pretty close I would figure.

Jimoh is another pet redskin project like Gibran. Thats why he is here.

Jimoh sucks, not doubt.

Our entire defense is not disciplined and it showed yesterday. Players are not staying put and being responsible for their area. UH OH! That was something MARVIN EMPHASIZED last year, and everyone cried about it. Where did it get us? 5th ranked D. Where are we now with TONS of freedom <cough><cough>mistakes? Yea exactly.

BUT!! In a good light, when we did stay put and protect our assigned areas, they stopped the run decently, even an announcer pointed that out.

I EMPHASIZE we need our players to be disciplined, and our coaches to ENFORCE it.

If that is what we call stopping the run we are in for a long long Sunday against the Panthers. As far as not missing assignments...what would you call the Hawks first touchdown. If that is not a blown assignment I dont know what is. We better get our s--t together this week in practice. But I have been saying that all year and I'm not expecting any adjustments. Especially coming off a win. I can guarantee that Carolina doesnt follow Ray Rhodes game plan...blitzes will be coming again this week.[/quote]
